Safety tips for installing child
restraint systems
Never let a passenger hold a child
on his or her lap or in his or her arms
while the vehicle is moving. The
passenger cannot protect the child
from injury in a collision, because
the child will be caught between the
passenger and objects inside the
vehicle.

Children should be properly re-
strained at all times. Never allow a
child to stand up, or to kneel on
any seat. Unrestrained children
will be thrown forward during sud-
den stop or in an accident and can
be injured seriously.

Never allow a child to stand up, or
to kneel on the front passenger’s
seat, or never hold a child on your
lap or in your arms. The SRS
airbag deploys with considerable
force and can injure or even kill
the child.

Child restraint systems and
seatbelts can become hot in a ve-
hicle that has been closed up in
sunny weather; they could burn a
small child. Check the child re-
straint system before you place a
child in it.
y
Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint system in your vehicle.
Unsecured child restraint sys-
tems can be thrown around inside
of the vehicle in a sudden stop,
turn or accident; they can strike
and injure vehicle occupants as
well as result in serious injuries or
death to the child.
